Hello lovely people!!
So... I'm late with this post :(. Yesterday was not a good day for me. I woke up pretty sick and whatnot so... Needless to say the polishing was not happening. Today I woke up feeling better, but still quite out of it. I'm sorry this post is so late and short. I've really been struggling with my health and energy lately. I would love some consistency right now :-s.
This look started with a clean White creme base. I did a Blue themed watermarble with some of the new O.P.I Euro-Centrale shades. I used You're such a Budapest, I saw...U saw.. We saw... Warsaw and Can't find my Czechbook. I always foget how much of a pain it it to clean up Blue polish after marbles. Well, for me at least. Once I was done with the cleanup, I was not entirely happy with my marble. So I topped it with my secret weapon, INM Northern Lights. When that didn't save it with for me I did a Konad stamp from plate M63 in Konad Black special polish. I then went back and topped the whole thing off with O.P.I Don't touch my Tutu to give it an "underwater" look. I actually really adore the finished look. I'm glad I stamped and sammiched the whole look.Muffin is being a princess lately.... And hey!! It's a Truffle photo-bomb!
Here is the marble before I stamped over it. IDK what it is but I was not really happy with it... :(
That is all for me today. I hope you guys like this mani. I'm so sorry I was late and short. As soon as I am feeling better I will be back up to full speed. In the mean time, if I disappear for a little bit, don't worry! It just means I need a little break and will be back shortly!

ReplyDeleteI really love both looks. I actually love the blue watermarble! Hope you feel better soon.

ReplyDeleteSo inspiring! Keep up the lovely work! I just recently found your blog and I love it. I have a love of nail polish, and I'm a classically trained artist... but I've been too scared to put the two together. Seeing what you do has inspired me to give it a try sometime. So thanks!
ReplyDeleteSo, so lovely! Blue is my favourite colour for nails. I stil haven't used the water marble technique, but soon I'll have to try for a cute collaboration between bloggers :)
ReplyDeleteI think they are both mind blowing, as always :). I hope you feel better and get that consistency you desire & deserve <3
ReplyDeleteLOL I LOVE your cats and Muffin Monday. I think the finished mani is SUPER TOTALLY (what other 90's cliche can I use?) cute and definitely eye-catching :)
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the marble design looked so similar on all nails.. and then read on ;). I love both looks, you do such great things!
ReplyDeleteI luuurrrvveee this! Those blues are to die for!!!
ReplyDeleteI think both are gorgeous but the finished look is my favourite! Hope you are feeling better soon, this time of year never helps with the "blues" anyways :(
ReplyDeleteOh, wow: you outdid yourself today with the stamping and the sandwich....it's gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeletewow.....wow
ReplyDeleteThis is quite beautiful. You should be especially proud of your water marbling skills. I've never been successful with it.
ReplyDeleteHi Cristina, I've been a long time reader of your blog and adore Muffin Mondays!
ReplyDeleteLove this blue water marble!

I cannot choose what I like the most...stamped or not?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous both ways.
